I checked at one of the scan stations. They were priced and scanned $7.48.

Do you know how the Genesis port of Sunset Riders is compared to the Super Nintendo version? I have Sunset Riders for the SNES, but if the genesis port is just like the arcade then I might have to track down a copy cause I fucking love Sunset Riders!

Same for my store, nothing good at $5.

Didn't leave empty handed though, wandered in to the mens clothing and picked up an "Atari Entertainment Technologies" T-shirt $10. :)


On a game related note:

Kid Klown in Night Mayor - $3

Here's a comparison here. There's a long intro for people not genre savvy, but once it gets going it will be helpful.

My Target has Contra 4 still at $8, which sucks because I'm low on cash and I want that game

But I did get these two for free!

That was a pretty good video, I even enjoyed the intro. To answer your question Militia if you didn't watch the video; the SNES version is closer to a straight port of the arcade version. I thought that was the case, but for 3 bones I figured might as well pull the trigger.
